Thankful for Little Things - Fall Color and Farmers

Went for a backroad ramble yesterday. It won't be long until the weather is too cold to drive with the windows down, so we took full advantage of the beautiful day. Unfortunately, we didn't find any birds, with the exception of a swallow flying overhead, or critters, although I did see what might have been a raccoon on the far side of a field, but he ducked into the bushes before I could raise my camera. 

We did find lots of weeds and some color.

This is Floating Primrose-Willow according to the "Seek" app on my phone. 


I tried to identify this with the same app and it kept saying Flowering Dogwood, but I think it might be Sumac. 

This tree peeked up over the hill to add color to a harvested soybean field.

We saw several farmers in the field. Harvest is in full swing.

  1. I love the beauty to be found in plain birds and humble weeds.

    1. Me, too. I used to think winter didn't have color, but it's simply a different color palette.
